MI HCR0011

Memorializes Congress to adopt and present to the states a constitutional amendment establishing parental rights to direct the upbringing and education of children as a fundamental right.

Proposes amendment language that would prohibit the United States and states from infringing on parental liberty without demonstrating a governmental interest of the highest order.

Includes provision that no treaty or international law source may supersede, modify, interpret, or apply to the parental rights guaranteed by the amendment.

References confusion created by the Supreme Court's 2000 decision in Troxel v. Granville regarding the enforceability of parental rights under the Constitution.

Requires copies of the resolution be sent to the President of the Senate, Speaker of the House, and Michigan's congressional delegation.
